Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Rowing Out To The Merchant Ship by Bernard Benedict Hemy was auctioned at Christies in London in March 2005. The price achieved of GBP 540.00 (€ 786.45) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 400.00 – 600.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Bernard Benedict Hemy - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A busy day on the Tyne (illustrated); and Working tugs on the river, which sold at auction in November 2008 for GBP 1,500.00 (€ 1,813.61).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Rowing Out To The Merchant Ship von Bernard Benedict Hemy kam im März 2005 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 540,00 (€ 786,45) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 400,00 – 600,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Bernard Benedict Hemy mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A busy day on the Tyne (illustrated); and Working tugs on the river beobachtet, die im November 2008 für GBP 1.500,00 (€ 1.813,61) versteigert wurde.
